Climate Report

The U.S. released a federal climate report November 23, outlining detailed projections that racked the nerves of much of the country and planet. Those paying attention to renewable energy and climate change in recent years are likely aware of many of the statistics, but the report, which was backed by 13 federal agencies, also illuminated current damage—to the shock of many.

The report traces the effects climate change on the United States, in an up-to-date fashion. This covers everything from national temperature levels rising to decreasing precipitation numbers. It also includes projections for the country that alarmed much of the public, both for the grave prospects and the stark contrast to the country’s recently lenient stance on the matter.
